Optogenetics uses light to control and observe the activity of neurons, often using a focused
laser beam. As brain tissue is a scattering medium, beams are distorted and spread with …

We combine a Monte Carlo technique with Mie theory to develop a method for simulating
optical coherence tomography (OCT) imaging through homogeneous turbid media. In our …

The cost function in the iterative optimization algorithms is one of the sensitive optimization
controllers that plays a crucial role in feedback based wavefront shaping for constructing …

Analytical and numerical models for describing and understanding the light propagation in
samples imaged by optical coherence tomography (OCT) systems are presented. An …

The traditional Monte Carlo technique of photon transport in random media describes only
single point properties of light, such as its intensity. Here we demonstrate an approach that …

A framework is developed that combines electric field Monte Carlo simulations of random
scattering with an angular-spectrum representation of diffraction theory to determine the …

Confocal and nonlinear optical microscopies have been applied for dermatological studies
because of their capability to provide sub-surface three-dimensional images with sub-µm …

Polarization resolved nonlinear microscopy (PRNM) is a powerful technique to gain
microscopic structural information in biological media. However, deep imaging in a variety of …

The focal field distribution of tightly focused laser beams in turbid media is sensitive to
optical scattering and therefore of direct relevance to image quality in confocal and …

We show that by using Monte Carlo simulations, one can study the characteristics of beams
with adjustable spatial coherence properties that propagate through highly scattering media …
